Literature Analysis on the Use of Augmented Reality in Elementary School Social Studies Learning
Keywords:
Augmented Reality, IPAS Learning, Elementary School, Learning Innovation, Interactive LearningAbstract
The development of digital technology has brought various innovations to the world of education, one of which is Augmented Reality (AR). This technology allows the combination of virtual objects with the real environment, thus providing a more interactive learning experience. This paper aims to analyze the literature related to the use of AR in learning Natural and Social Sciences (IPAS) in elementary schools. The method used is a literature review by examining research results from national journals over the past five years. The results of the study indicate that AR can help understand abstract concepts in IPAS more concretely, increase learning motivation, and encourage active student involvement. However, challenges in implementing AR are still found, such as limited devices, lack of educator competence, and the need for AR content that is in line with the curriculum. The conclusion of this study is that AR plays a role as a learning innovation that can support the IPAS learning process in elementary schools, with the note that it must be supported by educator readiness, technological facilities, and appropriate content development.
